Things making me happy right now

  • Mary saying to me, "You know what, Mom?  I can't remember what it was like without Sophia here."  (HA!  See, honey!  I TOLD YOU!)
  • Keith passing his Suzuki Cello Book 2.
  • Izzy playing her viola solo perfectly.
  • Izzy being "Narrator 1" for the "Sneech Play".  And nailing it.
  • All three kids coming up to hold and tickle and cuddle their baby sister.
  • Having one night this last week where ALL SIX of us were home for dinner.  Of course, being in a celebratory mood (it was the night of Keith's recital), we ordered pizza.  ha!
  • Sophia's roly poly legs.  Well, roly poly for one of OUR babies, anyway.  
  • Baby girl hand-me-down clothes.
  • Softball and Baseball seasons are almost over (although, we still have Keith's tournament season to contend with).
  • Sophia's grins and gurgles.
  • Chocolate-covered almonds.
  • And iced coffee.
  • Being able to make a quick run to the store--and leaving Sophia with Mary!
  • Finally getting the old, broken down crib and mattress out to the curb.  Along with various other icky things from our gross basement.
  • Almost keeping the laundry caught up.
  • Finally getting Keith to change a diaper.  And then his begging to change the next one.  
  • Sophia chewing on her hands and starting to grab her toys.
  • Getting rid of toys and books and even the toddler bed at my neighbor's garage sale last week.
  • Scoring a bunch of fun, crafty stuff and a hand-crocheted baby dress from my neighbor's garage sale last week.
  • Finding a pair of shorts that fit at Good will.
  • $5 Baby Rompers at the R Us place.
  • School is almost out!
